Salestrics Names CFO, COO, and Senior Advisor as Platform Scales Worldwide
By: Salestrics Inc.
MARYVILLE, Tenn. & SAN FRANCISCO — August 6, 2026 — Salestrics Inc., the AI-native revenue workspace for startups, today announced executive appointments to support global availability, enterprise-grade operations, and the continued expansion of its hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) surface.
Leadership appointments
-
Kyle Engelbert — Chief Financial Officer
Kyle leads finance, planning, and the economic model behind Salestrics’ plans from Free Forever through Scale. He brings discipline to unit economics, fundraising support, and the financial operations required as paying customers adopt CRM, Mail, Ledger, and MCP on one workspace. -
Noah Jones — Chief Operating Officer
Noah owns day-to-day operations across customer delivery, internal execution, and the cross-functional rhythm that keeps product, support, and GTM aligned. As the platform graduates modules to Live and ships weekly, operations must match the pace of the roadmap — without fragmenting the customer experience. -
Savannah Shropshire — Senior Advisor to the CEO
Savannah advises Austin on company strategy, planning, and executive decision-making. She has been instrumental in shaping Salestrics pricing and business operations and continues in a senior advisory capacity as the company scales.
Founder continuity
Austin Buhl remains Founder, CEO, and Chief Product Architect. Austin continues to set product vision, architecture, and long-term innovation — including the AI-native graph that powers Assistant, hosted MCP, and the unified record model across Momentum CRM, Mail, Workspace, Connect, Ledger, Resolve, and Insight.

Why now
Salestrics opened worldwide on August 3 after a concentrated shipping cadence: Public Beta in June, platform Live in July, Salestrics V2 on July 27, and hosted MCP in early August. Each release expanded surface area — more apps in the launcher, more AI on live data, more agents connecting through MCP.
That velocity rewards customers; it also demands executive ownership of finance and operations so product can keep moving. Dedicated CFO and COO roles are how startups preserve shipping speed without letting billing, onboarding, or internal coordination become the bottleneck.
What stays the same for customers
- One platform — CRM, mail, docs, finance, support, and AI on one login; see platform overview
- Live status — current-state modules remain production-ready; track releases in the System Status Center
- MCP for builders — org admins connect Cursor, Claude, and other clients via Salestrics MCP
- Support path — support@salestrics.com and in-app Support for product help
Role focus in the first ninety days
Each leader owns a clear lane so product velocity does not stall:
| Leader | Primary focus |
|---|---|
| Austin Buhl, CEO & CPO | Product architecture, AI and MCP roadmap, company vision, key customer and partner relationships |
| Kyle Engelbert, CFO | Financial planning, billing integrity, vendor and banking relationships, fundraising support materials |
| Noah Jones, COO | Customer onboarding rhythm, support escalation paths, cross-team execution, operational playbooks |
| Savannah Shropshire, Senior Advisor | Executive counsel, pricing and packaging strategy, board and investor coordination |
The structure mirrors how fast-growing B2B startups scale: founders keep product truth; finance and operations earn dedicated owners before complexity becomes a tax on every release.
Building alongside customers
Salestrics customers run pipeline, mail, proposals, invoicing, and support on one graph — not a dozen tabs held together with Zapier. Leadership expansion is in service of that promise: faster answers when something breaks, clearer plans when teams upgrade from Free Forever to paid tiers, and a finance function that understands SaaS metrics without treating every customer like an enterprise procurement cycle.
